My favourite bit on Guardian is where they say Corbyn was effectively asked what he would do if he asked for the Customs Union he wanted and the EU said no. His answer boiled mostly down to 'I'd keep asking'
Utterly clueless.
The basic trajectory of all this is that at some point in the next 12 months the Tories are going to turn up to the final vote with the deal they have and Labour will be in a driving seat. Yet, what they keep on misleading the public about is the nature of that vote. Either Labour votes in favour of whatever the Tories agree or they vote it down and the UK comes crashing out of the EU with absolutely no deal of any sort in place next March. There's no steering this away from the waterfall's edge and they need to stop falsely acting like they have a saviours touch to it all for remainers and the portion of young voters they engaged on that basis. They need to start positioning themselves as the party that has a clear and proactive (and financially sensible) plan for after Brexit otherwise they'll keep on handing the Tories the keys to number 10.
